Kewpie has it correct. I was counting down to Epiphany ( in Dutch: Drie Koningen ). It is custom to make sure your christmas tree and other decorations are removed because you would have a whole year of bad luck if you didn't.
More about Epiphany: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiphany_season#Anglicanism
It was very telling to see how many people here jumped right on me and assuming this countdown was about gb.
It is interesting that gb himself was the very first to tell others it was about him. Because he does think this forum is all about him ( http://www.timeforchess.com/forum/general/tick-tock-tick-tock.166824 )
So for all you hypocrites on your high horses in this forum ... up yours!

What will you do if he changes his mind?
Self-combust?

Just call him out on being the hypocrite I take him for.

Lacking an exit strategy, your attempt to find a different focus for the countdown was highly predictable. (And about as convincing as the acting of Ben Affleck). Front runners for your embarrassed change of direction were:
1. Christmas decorations coming down.
2. Your hernia operation.
3. Alien invasion
If it's any consolation you nearly convinced my cat. (Nearly).
Originally posted by SuzianneDon't worry, I will get back to you "passing over" people for saying horrible things because "it's part of their religious beliefs" in due course.
Here you are telling Kegge to 'let it go' when you have been totally unable and unwilling to 'let it go' all year. I nearly choked on my toast.
Originally posted by SuzianneIt's you excusing something because "it is part of their religious beliefs" that is the scary thing. I deeply flawed mindset which allows you to "pass over" something someone does or says because that are in your religious clique.
Obviously what is "horrible" to you isn't all that "horrible" to me...
...or to any other normal person.

Grampy Bobby said some awful things about people who commit suicide including them being an insult to God and their families.
You excused him because it you said it "was part of his religious beliefs".
What he said was disgraceful, and what you said was religious fundamentalist partisanism.
You exhibit this attitude consistently in these forums; "passing over" religious craziness, abuse or offence because these people are in your little clique. I'm just calling you in it.
